As we enter into the heart of the holiday season, Halloween and horror are not on most people’s minds – but FEARNet has decided to horror-fy your holiday with a cool new advertisement that brings one of our favorite characters to the Yuletide season in order to spread a little holiday fear.

Sam, the diminutive star of Michael Dougherty’s cult classic film Trick ‘r Treat, stars in a new holiday spot that plays a bit like horror’s take on Frosty the Snowman.

It all starts out innocently enough, with a young girl building a snowman out in the front yard. Things get dark when Sam shows up to help finish off her latest creation – and we learn that the snowman’s innards are made up of a real bound-and-gagged person.

The spot is certainly cute and should brighten up the holidays for those of us suffering from horror withdrawal during the (second) most wonderful time of the year. Check out the clip below.
